Oh well. I see you've only packaged/build dom, not the fx, tests, rt and viewer in the upstream tarball. None of those other bits built for me, but maybe that's not really a problem, and only dom is actually important? You've also got rid of all the 3rd-party cruft. Looks good. Lots of the files do still have the mixed line-ends which really ought to be fixed (upstream). I have a patch but have not worked out where to send it yet. > please use that.

So it is - I have a terrible memory - serves me right for not checking. I meant things like python-rosdep python-rosinstall-generator python-wstool which http://wiki.ros.org/hydro/Installation/Debian told me that I needed. I see that they are not in your git repo either.
